Description

Loading and unloading equipment scheduling method considering AGV collision avoidance
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of transportation of an automatic container terminal, in particular to the field of dispatching of loading and unloading equipment of the automatic container terminal, and particularly relates to a method for dispatching the loading and unloading equipment by considering AGV collision avoidance.
Background
The problem of AGV trajectory planning in container terminals has received a lot of attention from researchers due to the close connection between devices and the complexity of the environment. At present, the dispatching of container terminal loading and unloading equipment usually ignores the actual trajectory planning problem of the equipment. In addition, in the research of container terminals, the devices are generally assumed to work without interference, and the scheduling scheme does not include interference caused by collision avoidance. In addition, some researchers have studied the traditional three-stage hybrid flow shop of an automated container terminal to consider only the single quay crane case, whereas in the actual terminal environment, the job usually involves multiple quay bridges, multiple AGVs and multiple bridges. In addition, the research does not comprehensively consider the interaction between the collision avoidance constraint of the AGV and the dispatching of the loading and unloading equipment, which can influence the dispatching optimization performance of the loading and unloading equipment at the container terminal; based on the method, the invention provides a loading and unloading equipment scheduling method considering AGV collision avoidance to optimize the problem of collision-free scheduling of a shore bridge, the AGV and a field bridge in the process of transporting containers.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a loading and unloading equipment scheduling method considering AGV collision avoidance aiming at the problem of collision-free scheduling of loading and unloading equipment of an automatic container terminal, so as to realize collision-free scheduling of a terminal shore bridge, the AGV and a yard bridge. Firstly, establishing a dynamic model of a container terminal loading and unloading device and two types of collision avoidance models, wherein the dynamic model of a transport container can be represented by the combination of high-level discrete event dynamics and low-level continuous time dynamics, the scheduling of the loading and unloading device is related to the high-level discrete event dynamics, and the collision-free track planning is related to the low-level continuous time dynamics; dynamically regarding discrete events of equipment as a scheduling problem of a mixed flow shop, and then scheduling all container tasks of the mixed flow shop by adopting an integral graph sequence method; and finally, introducing a hierarchical control structure, determining the task sequence of each stage and minimizing the completion time of all tasks of each stage by a state monitoring controller under the condition of considering two collision avoidance constraints, sending the generated operation time windows to a stage controller, distributing the operation time windows to specific equipment by the stage controller, and updating the operation time of the AGV according to the minimum time control problem to realize collision-free scheduling of all tasks of the AGV.
Scheduling, as considered in this patent, includes determining the order of tasks for each particular device and the operating time window for each task; the scheduling is determined by dealing with a hybrid flow shop scheduling problem and an AGV collision avoidance problem. Two types of collision avoidance are considered: a stationary collision, which refers to the collision of the AGVs with stationary obstacles and associated equipment in front of the delivery point of the stacking area, and a moving collision, which refers to the collision of different AGVs with each other during the transportation of the container. The method for dispatching the loading and unloading equipment mainly comprises the following steps:
step one, establishing a model of three-stage equipment
In the three stage flow shop, a task is defined as a complete process of transporting a container from a ship to a designated location in a heap.
(1) Stage 1: multiple QCs
(2) And (2) stage: multiple AGV
(3) And (3) stage: multiple ASCs
Assuming that there are N containers to be transported from ship to heap, let Φ be the set of tasks (| Φ | ═ N), introduce two virtual task points 0 and N +1, and then let Φ be defined1Φ ∪ {0} and Φ2Φ ∪ { N +1 }. the time constraint for a particular device is as follows:

j ∈ Φ (i ≠ j), defining the decision variables:
xij1 indicates that in the first phase, the container task i completes earlier than task j, otherwise, xij=0;
y ij1 indicates that in the second phase, the container task i completes earlier than task j, otherwise, yij=0;
z ij1 indicates that in the third phase, the container task i completes earlier than task j, otherwise zij=0;
aiIs the completion time of container task i in the first phase; biIs the completion time of the container task i in the second stage; c. CiIs the completion time of the container task i in the third phase; diIs the start time for the transition from task i to task j in the second phase; e.g. of the typeiAGV arrival time at which container i is ready to be transported in the first stage;
Figure BDA0001440267280000031
is that
Figure BDA0001440267280000032
Completion time of h1∈{1,2,3},h2∈{1,2};
Figure BDA0001440267280000033
Is the transfer time of container i to container j handled by the designated AGV in the second phase; r is a large positive number; at is the reserved time for two containers to be loaded and unloaded successively by the same ASC.
Inequalities (1) and (4) represent the first task to initialize the QC and AGV, respectively. Inequality (2) represents a relationship between task i and task j processed by QC; inequality (3) ensures that at any moment, the joint point before each QC has at most one AGV; inequalities (5) and (6) represent the start of the second phase after task i is completed in the first phase; inequalities (7) and (8) indicate that task i is started in the third phase after completion of the second phase; inequality (9) represents the relationship between container task j and task i handled by ASC; inequality (10) indicates that the reserved time delta t between two successive tasks is ensured under the constraint of only one AGV at most at the front junction of each heap at any moment; inequalities (11) and (12) represent the transitions of container tasks i and j transported by the AGV.
Because collision avoidance is considered, decision variables of various tasks cannot be determined simultaneously, and a graphical method can be adopted to represent the three-stage hybrid flow shop scheduling, wherein each graphical representation processes corresponding container tasks in a specific order at a specific stage; integer variable xij,yijAnd zijRespectively defining the sequence of the container tasks processed by specific equipment in the three stages; x is the number ofij,yijAnd zijThe values of (a) may be represented by a graph of the stages;
the graphic sequence S represents the scheduling sequence of all container tasks to be executed in a specific stage of the hybrid flow shop; for phase 1, define
Figure BDA0001440267280000034
Wherein task j is executed after task i; for task i and task j, if task i and task j are accessed sequentially and both task i and task j are executed by a particular device in the graph, then xij1, otherwise xij0; stages 2 and 3 are defined similarly;
in order to schedule all container tasks of the mixed flow workshop in sequence, an overall graph sequence of each stage of the three stages is needed, and the index number of the sequence gives the operation sequence of the tasks; therefore, consider introducing a continuous variable bi(i e Φ), each task of the overall graph sequence being related to the values of these variables; it will be apparent that the variable values may be arranged in an ascending order to determine the job order of the tasks. And in the three-stage hybrid plant mentioned in step one, if there is R (1-x)ij)+bj>biThen, the sequence S {.. ·, i., j. } (b) }j≥biI, j e Φ, i ≠ j) is a feasible whole graph sequence. The reason is as follows:
consider an approximationBundles (7), (8) and (10) having R (1-z)ij)+bj>dj≥biSo that R (1-z)ij)+bj>bi. Because task i and task j are accessed sequentially for a particular AGV, R (1-y) may be obtainedij)+bj>bi. Thus, for the sequence S {.. ·, i., j. } (b)j≥bi,i,j∈Φ,i≠j),R(1-xij)+bj>bi,R(1-yij)+bj>biAnd R (1-z)ij)+bj>bi. This means that the sequence S is a feasible overall pattern sequence.

2) Establishing static collision avoidance constraint model
The rectangular area may be represented by the lower left corner coordinate(s)low,x,slow,y) And coordinates of upper right corner(s)high,x,shigh,y) To represent; to avoid the static obstacle area, the position of AGVi must be outside the rectangular area; therefore, the constraint conditions for satisfying the collision avoidance requirement are as follows:

wherein R is a large positive real number, bin,τ(k) Is a binary variable; constraints (19) and (20) ensure that at least one of equations (18) is true;
3) establishing a moving collision avoidance constraint model
In each time interval, except for the AGVp1And AGVp2Are different from each other, a minimum safety distance (2d) is maintained between them; the collision avoidance constraint can be written in the form of:

step three, determining a hierarchical control structure
According to the hierarchical control structure, the collision-free scheduling of all tasks is planned by the whole graph sequence, and the whole graph sequence simultaneously solves the problem of collision-free track planning and the scheduling of loading and unloading equipment; according to the overall graph sequence, sequentially completing collision-free scheduling of all tasks one by one; for a group of tasks with an operation sequence to be determined, the first planned task is used for determining the relevant collision-free track of the task in the phase 2 and the relevant operation time of the task in the phase 1 and the phase 3 controlled by a high-level controller; after the first task is completed, the high-level controller updates the discrete event dynamic and determines the operation sequence and the operation time of the rest tasks again; this process is repeated until the scheduling of all tasks is completed;
1) state monitoring controller
The state monitoring controller is used for determining the task sequence of each stage and minimizing the completion time of all tasks of each stage. When the QC and the AGV can be scheduled at any time, the completion time is defined as the completion time of the last ship leaving task. I.e., max { a }1,...,an,e1,...enI.e., | f | ceiling,||·||Denotes an infinite norm, wherein f ═ a1,a2,...,an,e1,...,en]T
In order to determine the task order of all stages of the mixed flow shop problem, the theorem needs to add additional constraints; the following definitions are first made:
a=[a1,a2,...,an]T
b=[b1,b2,...,bn]T
c=[c1,c2,...,cn]T
d=[d1,d2,...,dn]T

Detailed Description
Step one, establishing a model of three-stage equipment
In the present invention, consider the multiple QC, multiple AGV and multiple ASC scenarios for an automated container terminal. The operation of three types of equipment can be considered a three stage hybrid flow shop. In a hybrid flow shop, each task performed goes through several stages of processing. Each stage of the same device may process a portion of a task in parallel. The processing sequence of each task is the same and the processing time of each stage of each task is fixed. In the three stage flow shop, a task is defined as a complete process of transporting a container from a ship to a designated location in a heap.
(1) Stage 1: multiple QCs
(2) And (2) stage: multiple AGV
(3) And (3) stage: multiple ASCs

Assuming that there are N containers to be transported from ship to heap, let Φ be the set of tasks (| Φ | ═ N), introduce two virtual job points 0 and N +1, and then define Φ1Φ ∪ {0} and Φ2Φ ∪ { N +1 }. the time constraint for a particular device is as follows:

is that

is the transfer of container i to container j handled by a given AGV in the second stageTime; r is a large positive number; at is the reserved time for two containers to be loaded and unloaded successively by the same ASC.
Inequalities (1) and (4) represent the first task to initialize the QC and AGV, respectively. Inequality (2) represents a relationship between task i and task j processed by QC; inequality (3) ensures that at any moment, the joint point before each QC has at most one AGV; inequalities (5) and (6) represent the start of the second phase after task i is completed in the first phase; inequalities (7) and (8) indicate that task i is started in the third phase after completion of the second phase; inequality (9) represents the relationship between container task j and task i handled by ASC; inequality (10) indicates that the reserved time delta t between two successive tasks is ensured under the constraint of only one AGV at most at the front junction of each heap at any moment; inequalities (11) and (12) represent the transitions of container tasks i and j transported by the AGV.
In accordance with the above constraints, the discrete event dynamics of a three-stage device is considered a hybrid flow shop scheduling problem. These decision variables may be determined by the state monitor by solving a hybrid flow shop scheduling problem. Since the decision variables for the various tasks cannot be determined simultaneously due to collision avoidance considerations, the three-stage hybrid flow shop schedule may be represented using a graphical approach, where each graphical representation processes the corresponding container tasks in a particular order at a particular stage. Integer variable xij,yijAnd zijThe order in which a particular device processes container tasks in the three phases is defined separately. x is the number ofij,yijAnd zijAs shown in fig. 2, an example of 6 container tasks being processed (involving 2QC,3AGV and 3ASC) is given to illustrate the sequence of tasks that each device may process for each phase, where the container tasks being processed ① - ⑥, the virtual container origin task

The graphical sequence S represents all container tasks that are to be performed at a particular stage of the hybrid flow shop. For phase 1, define
Figure BDA0001440267280000112
Where task j is executed after task i. For task i and task j, if task i and task j are accessed sequentially and both task i and task j are executed by a particular device in the graph, then xij1, otherwise xijOne possible graphics order in phase 1 is (①, ④, ④, ④.) for example, task ④ and task ④ are accessed sequentially by the same device, but task ② is not processed after task ④ because task ② and task ④ 1 are not processed by the same device.for a particular phase, there may be multiple graphics orders.for another graphics order for phase 1 may be (④).
In order to schedule all the container tasks of the mixed flow shop in sequence, an overall graph sequence of each stage of the three stages is required, and the index numbers of the arrangement sequence give the operation sequence of the tasks. Therefore, consider introducing a continuous variable bi(i e.di), each task of the overall graph sequence is related to the value of these variables. It will be apparent that the variable values may be arranged in an ascending order to determine the job order of the tasks. And in the three-stage hybrid plant mentioned in step one, if there is R (1-x)ij)+bj>biThen, the sequence S {.. ·, i., j. } (b) }j≥biI, j e Φ, i ≠ j) is a feasible whole graph sequence. The reason is as follows:
considering constraints (7), (8) and (10), there is R (1-z)ij)+bj>dj≥biSo that R (1-z)ij)+bj>bi. Because task i and task j are accessed sequentially for a particular AGV, R (1-y) may be obtainedij)+bj>bi. Thus, for the sequence S {.. ·, i., j. } (b)j≥bi,i,j∈Φ,i≠j),R(1-xij)+bj>bi,R(1-yij)+bj>biAnd R (1-z)ij)+bj>bi. This means that the sequence S is a feasible overall pattern sequence.
Step two, establishing an AGV and a collision avoidance model
1) Establishing AGV dynamic model
Assuming that the dynamic models of each AGV are consistent, all AGVs use the point-quality model to estimate the dynamic behavior of the two-dimensional space

The speed and acceleration constraints are as follows:

in the formula umaxAnd vmaxUpper limit values for acceleration and velocity, respectively. To simplify the calculations, the constraints on velocity and acceleration both approximate a polygonal constraint using linear equations. The constraints on speed and acceleration are as follows:

wherein M is an arbitrary number. As shown in FIG. 3, a graphical maximum speed approximation of an AGV is presented. The X-axis and Y-axis represent the range of lateral and longitudinal speeds of the AGV, respectively. Circles represent exact constraints, while polygons represent approximate constraints.
2) Establishing static collision avoidance constraint model
Assuming that the AGVs occupy a square safety zone, AGV2, d is the safety distance of a single AGV area, each having a side length of 2d and an area of 2 d. As shown in FIG. 4, a schematic diagram of the safety zone of a single AGV is presented.
As shown in fig. 5, a schematic view of the static obstacle area is given. Assume that FIG. 5(a) is a schematic view of two stationary obstacle areas near a stack, where container 1, AGV2, and landing bridge stationary track 3; the coordinate diagram of the rectangular area of the two tracks of the static obstacle field bridge (ASC) is shown in FIG. 5(b), and the rectangular area can be represented by the coordinates(s) at the lower left cornerlow,x,slow,y) And coordinates of upper right corner(s)high,x,shigh,y) To indicate. To avoid stationary obstacle zones, AGViMust be outside the rectangular area. Therefore, it isThe constraint conditions that satisfy the collision avoidance requirement are as follows:
Figure BDA00014402672800001212
Figure BDA0001440267280000131
with binary variables introduced, the constraint (18) can be rewritten to the form of a standard optimization problem as follows:
Figure BDA0001440267280000132
Figure BDA0001440267280000133
wherein R is a large positive real number, bin,τ(k) Is a binary variable. Constraints (19) and (20) ensure that at least one of equations (18) is true, thus ensuring that the AGV is outside of the stationary obstacle area.
3) Establishing a moving collision avoidance constraint model
When multiple AGVs transport a container to different destinations, collisions that may occur between the AGVs need to be considered. In each time interval, except for the AGVp1And AGVp2Are different from each other, a minimum safety distance (2d) is maintained between them.
The collision avoidance constraint can be written in the form of:

and
Figure BDA0001440267280000137
respectively, the k-th step of AGVp1And AGVp2The position of (a). Introducing a binary variable, the constraint (21) can be rewritten as follows:

Figure BDA0001440267280000139
in the formula, bm,τIs a binary variable, R is a real number, and equations (22) and (23) ensure that equation (21) holds true.
Step three, determining a hierarchical control structure
Based on the dynamic decomposition of the above system, a hierarchical control structure of the container terminal is required to coordinate the phase controllers, as shown in fig. 6, (i.e., high-level controller and low-level controller). The high-level controller comprises a state monitoring controller and a stage controller of each stage. The condition monitoring controller coordinates the three-stage device by determining the sequence and timing of tasks and schedules time windows for each stage's operation. The phase controller assigns a time window for each operation to a particular device. The lower level controllers include respective local controllers. The local controllers are associated with specific devices (QC, AGV and ASC).
According to the hierarchical control structure, the collision-free scheduling of all tasks is planned by the whole graph sequence, and the whole graph sequence simultaneously solves the problems of scheduling of the loading and unloading equipment and planning of collision-free tracks. According to the overall graph sequence, the collision-free scheduling of all tasks is completed sequentially one task after another. For a set of tasks for which an operational sequence is to be determined, the first task planned is used to determine the relevant collision-free trajectory for that task in phase 2, and the relevant operational time for that task in phases 1 and 3, controlled by the higher level controller. After the first task is completed, the high-level controller updates the discrete event dynamics and re-determines the operation sequence and operation time of the remaining tasks. This process is repeated until the scheduling of all tasks is completed. As shown in fig. 7, a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the interaction of the two-layer controller is given.
1) State monitoring controller
The state monitoring controller is used for determining the task sequence of each stage and minimizing the completion time of all tasks of each stage. When the QC and the AGV can be scheduled at any time, the completion time is defined as the completion time of the last ship leaving task. I.e., max { a }1,...,an,e1,...enI.e., | f | ceiling,||·||Denotes an infinite norm, wherein f ═ a1,a2,...,an,e1,...,en]T
To determine the order of tasks for all stages of the hybrid flow shop problem, the theorem adds additional constraints. The following definitions are made:
a=[a1,a2,...,an]T
b=[b1,b2,...,bn]T
c=[c1,c2,...,cn]T
d=[d1,d2,...,dn]T
e=[e1,e2,...,en]T

constraint conditions are as follows: (1) and (12) and the associated equation constraints. The optimization problem is a linear programming problem, so that the time of the hybrid flow shop can be adjusted quickly.
2) Phase controller
The phase controller assigns each task to a particular device of the respective phase according to the sequence of tasks to be derived. In the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem, this allocation relationship is implicit in the equation constraint, for which the following three mapping functions are defined.
Considering the consistency of the dynamic models of all AGVs in stage 2, an AGV set is defined: Ψagv={1,2,...,nagv}。
